Someone please help.

I'm in the beginning stages of realizing that I am a compulsive liar and always have been. I just recently had a huge wake up call with the last relationship I was in. It starts out with me telling little white lies and once I get caught lying...I TRY TO LIE MY WAY OUT OF IT!! It feels like I can't help it. Its like I have word vomit, the lies come out without me even realizing it. I am a lost puppy when it comes to this and I need someone to help me through. I lost the love of my life to compulsive lying. I cant fix my relationship until I fix my problem first. Someone please help.

Welcome Maddog2353 ,

I'm sorry that you are struggling with this . Compulsions are not choices and they can be difficult to overcome without help . If you haven't already , please consider talking to a professional therapist . There are tools and methods that they can teach you for dealing with the urge to lie . You don't have to live this way . We have the ability to choose not to lie .

Man we do make a mess of our lives and those we love. I've messed things up again and am trying to figure out what to do. There is tons of information and ideas in the post, "Full Details on How to stop lying". Lots to learn. For all of us.
